Iterating over multiple lists (a newbie question)

This may be rather silly, but I can't think of a clever way...

To traverse a single list the code is:

	for item in list:
		print item

However, if there are multiple lists (of the same length) is there a
cleverer way to do the following:

	for i in range(0,len(list1)):
		print list1[i], list2[i]

I would like something like this (which obviously does not work):

	for one,two in list1, list2:
		print one,two

TIA
